Contract Marriage: Billionaire and His Deaf Wife Chapter 1136: Betrayal and Non-Betrayal (Part 1)

Gu’s mom looked down from the window and saw Ou Yanan, who had brought Zhao ngjin back, and rembered seeing this child’s parents today. She sighed and turned around.

Ou Yanan initially wanted to get out of the car but then stopped.

Zhao ngjin asked him, "Not getting out of the car?"

"No."

This person, dithering about, hesitating, clearly said he wanted to see Gu Nuan, but now he’s backing out. Zhao ngjin thought to herself.

Ou Yanan saw Gu’s mom at the window and suddenly felt the urge to retreat. With Gu Nuan, he was fine. But with the Gu Family couple, he basically had nothing to say.

Since it was getting late, Zhao ngjin went inside to grab her things and ca back out to sit in his car again. She had been staying with her own family these past two days.

Ou Yanan drove her away.

Feeling sorry for him, Zhao ngjin told him, "It’s just as well you didn’t go up. My aunt is back in her room getting ready to sleep."

"Mm—"

Zhao ngjin noticed his poker face hadn’t changed and shook her head helplessly.

Gu’s mom heard the car engine below and couldn’t help but tiptoe back to the window for another look, even though she couldn’t see anyone. With her mind full of concerns, Gu’s mom unknowingly walked to her daughter’s room.

Seeing her daughter standing still in the room, Gu’s mom asked, "What’s wrong?"

Gu Nuan suddenly shivered, not knowing how to face her mother.

She had to keep her composure. Although Sister Cai had an incident, her dad wasn’t necessarily—

"Nothing, mom." Gu Nuan turned and smiled at her mom, "Mom, aren’t you going to sleep?"

"Sleeping." Gu’s mom replied vaguely, equally distracted.

The mother and daughter exchanged a look. Gu’s mom couldn’t help but wonder if her daughter had also seen that young man nad Ou and associated sothing with him.

There was nothing more to say.

Gu’s mom instructed her daughter to add an extra quilt for the night and then went back to her room.

Once her mom left the room, Gu Nuan imdiately dialed her dad’s phone, but it was still off. With no other choice, she called over the housekeeper, "Where’s Mr. Gu?"

"The young master is downstairs." With that, the housekeeper inford Xiao Yebai.

Upon hearing that his wife was looking for him, Xiao Yebai quickly ran upstairs.

Seeing his wife sitting on a chair looking solemn, Xiao Yebai put away his usual laid-back expression, squatted in front of Gu Nuan, and held her hand, "What’s wrong, Nuannuan?"

"My dad’s phone is turned off."

Xiao Yebai responded with an "Oh," not appearing as worried as she was.

Gu Nuan noticed sothing and asked, "Did my dad contact you earlier?"

"Dad said he wanted to give you a big surprise and didn’t want to contact you first. So, he contacted . I booked him a plane ticket."

Gu’s dad turned off his phone as he was on the plane.

Gu Nuan felt like she was collapsing, slumping into the chair without wanting to move, her heart still pounding.

"Nuannuan." Xiao Yebai clasped her hand tighter, noticing her palms were sweating. Knowing that she was usually so composed, this behavior was clearly unusual. He squinted and asked, "Is there another issue? Is there sothing else—"

Gu Nuan thought about it, unsure whether to tell him about Sister Cai’s matter. Since Gu’s dad was safe, the truth of Sister Cai’s words might need to be taken with caution.

Xiao Yebai gently helped her up, leading her to the bed, and said carefully, "Whatever it is, I’m here. I’m lively and full of energy now, no trouble running around, no issue going above and beyond. If you don’t make use of , you’re silly, you know?"
